I recently listened to a group of people complaining for 10 minutes about a soulless, depressing, mind-numbing-insult-to-anyone-with-a-genuine-love-of-music "talent" contest, called "X Factor".
I asked them why they watch it if it pains them so much and didn't they have anything better to do with their time, especially on a Saturday night. "Well it's just on innit" and "everyone else watches it so I have to know what they're talking about" were just 2 of the replies. What does this say about the millions who watch this drivel while decent hard working talented musicians of all genres are out there waiting for an audience? It tells me that we have bred a nation of tone-deaf shallow morons. The creator of this tripe is clearly music's Satan disguised with a smug face resembling a smacked arse.
If you genuinely appreciate quality music get out there and find it. You won't find it on Cowell's cow-pat television.
